FYI - Ambery RGB to VGA
« on: March 24, 2009, 04:07:43 AM »
I received mine in the mail today and tested with my A500 - it works perfectly!

RGB to VGA Adapter

I also picked up a RGB to 15-pin female adapter from Amigakit.

Next, I had to use a 15pin female to male vga adapter from a local pc shop so it could hook right to the Ambery converter box.

BTW, the Ambery converter comes with vga to Component video cable, so you could hook you Amiga to a big screen tv!

Now my Amiga works great on a 15" MAG CRT I have had a while... once I get some more pennies saved up, it is time for a LCD for my A500!

Thanks

What output resolution are you running at?


My monitor says its in 640x480 but the Amiga Workbench 1.3 doesn't take up the whole screen.  I think by Default the Amiga does 600x400 or something like that.

Also, I popped in one of my favorite games - The Killing Game Show - and it looked brilliant. If there is some color loss, I can't visible tell.  Looks as good as I ever remember the Amiga 500 way back in the 80's!
